Gluten Free Anytime Bars
Ingredients
· ¼ cup rice flour or your favorite gluten free flour
· 1/4 cup gluten free rolled oats
· ½ cup craisens
· 2 eggs
· 5 tbsp grade B Maple Syrup
Can also add raisens, sultanas, any other type of dried fruit of your choosing.
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 and toast nuts in a single layer for about 7-8 minutes. Turn oven down to 325. Combine flour, flaxseed, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a food processor and process for 5 seconds to combine. Add nuts; pulse 5 seconds to chop coarsely. Add oats, dates and apricots (chopped coarsely as well). Pulse until mixture is combined but course.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, maple syrup and vanilla till combined. Add fruit and nut mixture and use your hands to mix well, being sure to separate any clumps of fruit. At this time I like to add sultanas whole to give a little chew. You can add any fruit you choose or keep to the original recipe. Spread mixture in square 8 by 8 baking pan in an even layer and bake for 20-25 minutes - till set and golden brown. let cool on a wire rack. cut into 20 small square bars.
